my thoughts.....
as far as works goes, it depends on what you use in the suite.

internet security, well out of the box i haven't had a lot of luck with these sorts of suits, i've tried Panda, McAfee, and Norton/Symantec.

What i have used that works is, Windows Live one care, avast +windows defender and the built in XP firewall.

I define works as program install in easy, the product is stable, and it updates reliably. Also i am very sceptical of 2 way firewalls, i see the value in them but if the end user was smart enough to use them they wouldn't really need a security suit to begin with. the only fire i have seen automatically manage itself without being really intrusive or screwing up some sort of communications is windows live one care.
